IDAHO'S BRAVE GIRL.

Another Chapter in the History of
the Heroine OF Little Lost
River.
San Francisco Examiner.
A year ago a wonderful story of the
gallant fight of Theresa Tallert with
mountain lions while defending her
flock OF AngOra goats on the Little Lost
river, was circulated far and wide in
American and even French papers. The
story set forth how, late one evening in
her cabin in the foothills of Eastern

racing around in the stockade adjoin-

daunted, she attacked them and cut one

recently for printing and selling in

Over a Mysterious Affiiction.
A curious story comes from Whining
ton, N. c., regarding an alleged mirac-
ulous manifestation which has caused
intense excitement among the colored
people. The story is as follows: Anna
Granger, colored woman, was ridicul-
ing and mocking another woman who
was singing hymn. Suddenly she felt
a burning sensation in the palm of her
left hand, and on examination found
singular diScoloration. The words,

capital letters, appeared plainly in
half circle Oh the lower part of the palm.
The woman screamed and acted so wildly
that The whole neighborhood soon gath
cred, and from that time ON the excite
ment increased rapidly. Atnight there
were great crowds of people in the
house and vicinity until late hour.
Everybody is permitted to look at the
woman's hand, and the greater number
of those who inspect it are much i'm
pressed. The Granger woman was at
first so overcome by fear that she had to
be kept up by stimulants. The discolor-
alton is not now quite so visible as at

THE STATE OF TRADE.
Regular Weekly Review of Com
merciaI Matters

Regular Weekly Review of Com
merciaI Matters.
New YORK, June 1O.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of the trade says:
"But for labor contests and excessive
speculation the outlook would be en-
tirely satisfactory. Crop prospects and
the financial situation have both i'm
proved during the past week, but the
effect Of important strikes is felt more
seriously every week. How great the
disturbance of trade and production
which may result from single strike is
forcibly illustrated by the returns of
iron furnaces, the Iron Age making
weekly output June / of about 81, ,675
tons, or 27 per cent. less than May l,
while Pittsburg statistics forwarded by
our correspondent make the decrease
30,050 tons. Either statement represents
a remarkable decline in output, rang
ing from 100000 to $3.50, 900 in the value
of the weekly production, and to this
must be added the decrease in many
important branches of manufacture
which depend for material upon furnaces
now idle. In spite of the great decline
in production, the prices of iron have
week, heavy sales of Southern iron
having been made in the eastern
markets. The stove business revives,
the lockout of moulders having termin-
ated, but the nail market is demOraliZcd
by OverprOductiOn. The demand for
bar iron is better, but prices are de-
pressed by Western competition, and
the offering of foreign nails at low fig
ureS checks the demand near SeapOrts.
Wheat seems weaker, though prices,
after raising nearly to 81 for red,
fn 1ac Of
level. Crop reports from all directions
are favorable, and the accumulation of
2,SO0 cars about Chicago still loaded, be-
cause wheat room is scarce in elevators,
gives point to the observation that a
great quantity of wheat seems still to
be left in farmers hands, but exports
bid fair to fall below those of last June.
In that case the surplus to be carried
over would probably exceed .49,000,000i
bushels. Chicago exchange on New
York is still 40 to so cents discount, and
shows that spectators are preventing
the natural movement of money east
ward at this season. From the North
western points great activity is reported,
with especial mention of the stfmulat-
ing influence of rapid railroad building.
The stock market has shown weakness,
but the gain i'll railroad bonds sustain
the confidence of holders. A fall in
foreign exchange, Notwithstanding the
decline in merchandise export, indicates
continued investment of foreign capital
in this country. The business failures
during the last seven days number for
the United States 40, for Canada 33,
total 173, against $50 last week and 2O9
for the corresponding week of last year.
In the Eastern and middle states the
failures are exceptionally light. In the
other sections about the averagae num-
Der are reported, but in Canada there is
a considerable increase, arising mostly
in the maritime provinces.

Curious Signs in I,ondon.

At a market town in Rutlandshire the
following placard is affixed to the shut
ters of a matchmaker, who had de-
camped leaving his creditors minus:
''Wound up and the handspring broke. -
AS pithy and curious was the notice
lately stuck up on the window of a
London coffee house: ''This coffee
room removed upstairs till repaired"
In respectable luncheon bar in
Westminster the writer was once
amused by seeing placard announcing
the arrival of fresh ''muScles.'' After
this he was not surprised to see street
hawker in Cheapside bearing card
which informed the public that bird
''wOrblers," as he called his whistles,
were only one penny each.
There are many curious signs and
business announcements to be found in
London, of which a few are: '.Sick dogs
medically attended by the week or
gent.emen's feet and hands profession
ally treated by the job or season.
Round-shOuldered persons made
straight. Babies or children hired or
exchanged. False noses as good as
new, and warranted to fit. Black eyes
painted very neatly"
In the extreme West we hear of n
shanty which bears the sign: Here's
where you can get meal like your
mother used to give you"
A kind of witty contest has some
times been carried on between sign pro-
prietors. For instance. we are told
that Isaac Came, rich shoemaker of
Manchester, who left his property to
public charities, opened his first shop
opposite to the building where he had
been servant, and put upa sign which
read: 81. Came-frOm over the way.''
Somewhat like this was the sign of
tavernkeeper named Danger, near Cam
bridge, who, having been driven out of
his house, built another. opposite and
inscribed it: "Danger-from over the
way" The successor retcrted by put
ting up new inscription: There is
no danger here nOw."

One of the most wonderful things

Indies. The fluid resembles water, and
the mouth is filled with it. A light is
held close, and the fluid, blown over it,
ignites, making the high flame. The
HanlOns also possess another West

French wOrkmen over the artisans of

that the skill and the genius of a French
man cannot make it thing of beauty,n

Angered by the contradiction, the old
soldier pulled hair from his brisly gray

The Frenchman took the hair and sent
it in a letter to a well-known Partisan

an appeal to his patriotic pride, giving
him no limit of expense in executing the

The oyster seems to be growing in

Free Press. 1t is rather curious thing
that the nearer home you come. or rather
the oyster comes, the more expensive it
is. The usual price of American oysters
on half shell in London is shilling
dozen. The Dutch oysters seem to be
about 1 shilling pence to shillings,
and the English oyster is from shill-
lngs pence upwards. My American
friend tells NE he has what
might be called a corner on oysters. 1t
seems to be rather unique idea, and so

goes down to Billingsgate and buys 100
Blue Points in the'shell for about 3 shil-
lingS. He places them on the floor of
his coal cellar at home and then feeds
them on corn meal or some such stuff
until they. are as fat as is possible for an
oyster to get, and ''all very fine and
large" [ had some hesitation in believ-
ing this story; it seemed to me rather
strange that oysters could be reared in
the cellar like so many chickens, but he
assured melt is true. He says, after
the Wetted corn meal is strewed round
the oysters, that if you return to their
